ANOTHER RACE.
Crystal Leads for Fast Snow-Shoe-
ing-They Take Three Pieces
OF Stone From his Cheek.
auNNIsON,s sN0w-sM0E RACE.

Results la F. N. Williams, ofthis Place,
Capturing First Money, and!Bestowed
Upon Him the Championship Of the
County, Challenges the State.
The second race of the Gunnison
County Snow-Shoe Club was run
on Friday, the 21st inst, but, owing
to the poor condition and insuffici-
ent quantity Of "the beautiful" !" the
time made was not as good as had
been made in former races, neither
was there as much excitement Or
interest manifested by the runners
and people. Sage-brush and bo-
ulders made it very inconveient for
the boys running as we'll as danger
Gus should any Of them been SO un-
fortunate as to tumble, but luck
seemed to favor them and not a
fall was recorded. The hill select
ed was that known as the Moffatt
hill, about a mile East from the
city, and was not as steep OF long
as hills. the previous races had been
run on, it being only little over a
thousand feet long. The day was
fine and large crowds were present
to witness the fun.
Three entries were made and it
only took three heats to decide the
winners of the prizes; and resulted
as follows: First heat-Frank
Williams came in first; Percie
Ransden second and Tom Bough-
ton third. The boys again climbed
the hill and came down led by
Williams, Ransden and Boughton
came in on tie. This gave first
money to Williams as we'll as be-
slowed upon him the honors of be-
ing the champion snow-shoer Of the
county. Ransden and Baughton
again made their way up the hill to
determine who was entitled to the
second prize, which was awarded to
Ransden and gave the third to
Boughton.
NOTES OF INTEREST.
Toboggan sliding was indulged in
before and after the race.
Tom said he was safe for third
prize If he didn't get second--he
didn't.
Frank and our devils shoes are
the champion snow-shoers in the
county.
Capt. e. ". Burton and B. W.
Lewis were the two happiest men
on the scene.
The club challenges the State for
$25O.0O to run on Washington's
birth day-who wants to tackle the
boys.
The small boys had race which
resulted in Royal Jarvis winning
the first prize, Claude Burton Sec
ond and Allen Smith third. Good
time was made by the boys consid-
ering the little practise they had
had.
It was proposed to have an hon
orary race for only those mem
bers who never were on snow-shoes
to participate. o gosh /! What a
picnic-we second the motion, and
are in two dollars for pot-to't'e'r
one Capt. Burton's the last man
down the hill.
Frank, our champion, was high
ly lavished with cheers; not only
after he had won the first prize,
but before the race, while running
down the hill for amusement and
to show the spectators what good
snow-shoeing was he struck sage
bush which sent him back on his
head and shoulders, but as quick as
fash, without stopping,h was again
standing straight ON his shoes and
going at a ''double-geared lightn-
ing" speed down the hill.
